The Bulldogs led the Volunteers at the break, but a second-half surge from No. 6 Tennessee put the game out of reach for No. 23 Georgia.

Tennessee Volunteers basketball has another ranked contest on deck as they take on the No. 23 Georgia Bulldogs. Tennessee dropped in the rankings from No. 1 to No. 6 after a terrible loss to the Florida Gators last week. They bounced back with a close win against the Texas Longhorns however that game was much closer than expected.

Georgia basketball hung with No. 6 Tennessee through 20 minutes before falling apart at a hostile Thompson-Boling Arena Wednesday night. The No. 23-ranked Bulldogs (14-3, 2-2 SEC) held a 26-25 halftime lead before the Volunteers (16-1, 3-1) exploded into the second half with a 26-4 scoring run to win 74-56.
